Kerry Brodie is the owner of “Suite-ly Styled by Kerry” in Hickory North Carolina. She has been a hair stylist for 13 years. I decided to get her expertise on hair care tips. I have trusted her with my hair for years. Kerry has brought my hair back to life after a lot of abuse caused by myself. We have also been friends for over two decades, so I know the answers will be honest and real. What is…

If you have followed this blog for a while — or even if this is your very first visit — you have probably seen Buddha proudly featured on the homepage as our “Editor.” That title came naturally to him because anytime I opened my laptop to write, Buddha was right there beside me, making sure everything met his approval. Buddha in his bowtie Sadly, Buddha passed away unexpectedly, and I wanted to…

Halloween is one of my favorite days of the year, so of course I had to bring a little spooky-season energy into my workouts that week. On Halloween day, my gym even encouraged us to dress up (workout-friendly costumes only, of course)—and I saved that look for last. The best part? I didn’t spend a single dollar on any of these outfits. Every look was pieced together using items I already had in…

If you are like me, you have seen Sleepy Tie advertised on Instagram, Facebook, and Tik Tok. Sleepy Tie is exactly what it sounds like. A way to tie your hair up while you sleep, so that it looks good the next morning. I was intrigued by these advertisements, however, I sleep with a sleeping bonnet. I was not completely sure I wanted to spend the money to buy one. I was worried I would not use…

Do you see the vanities in makeup or hair tutorial videos and think, why can’t mine look that good? If you said yes, Me too! It has been something I have been envious of for a long time. My vanity either looked too plain or just had a lot of clutter on top of it. There was no organization, just a bunch of beauty products on top of it. A vanity can be both functional and aesthetically…

When I am at work or at the gym, I want my hair to be out of my face. I do not always want to put my hair in a simple ponytail or bun. I also want my little baby hairs in the front by my face to be secured as well. I don’t like looking all crazy with little sprigs of hair sticking out everywhere. This is an easy up-do that I get a lot of compliments on every time I wear it. This up-do keeps…

We all know that shower—the one where you truly indulge. You take your time, savor the warmth of the water, wash and condition your hair, shave everywhere, exfoliate, and finish with rich moisturizers. It’s not just another task to check off your list, but a moment of pure self-care and relaxation. Let’s talk about the Everything Shower—the ultimate self-care ritual. Here are some of my favorite…

I recently went to a birthday party with a theme. I love a theme!! However, this theme was very much something I have never done before. The theme was “classy bohemian” Knowing the birthday girl, I knew everything was going to be amazing and on theme. The entire party, from decor, music, fashion, makeup, the whole thing was going to be classy bohemian. There was pressure to make sure my outfit…

Being a fashionista can be hard in certain places. The gun range is one of them. No one is really concerned with attire except for making sure you have closed toe shoes, sleeves, and eyes and ears protection on. Most people are looking at the guns, ammo, and targets, not so much what everyone is wearing. A fashionista on the other hand is lives like everywhere is a runway. Eyes and Ears Hubby…

New Year’s Eve is a night of excitement for what the incoming new year holds. Celebrations can be from a formal night to staying at home in your pajamas. Sometimes it can be hard to tell what you should wear. This past new years we went to our friends house out of town for a party. I dressed up as I love to dress up for occasions, but I also could wear my look two different ways. My original…

One of the most important things with fashion is taking care of our clothes. Especially when we have them stored until the next time we wear them. I know all closets are different shapes and sizes. No matter what kind of closet you have, I have found one easy way to keep your clothes hanging well, looking good, and to add more space to your closet. Velvet hangers. Space The first thing I…
